Specifications
Tympanometry
Instrument Type: Meatus compensated tympanometer
Analysis Performed: Admittance peak level (in ml); Pressure ofsame; Gradient (in daPa); Ear Canal Volume (ECV) at 200 daPa
Probe Tone Levels and Accuracy: 226 Hz +/-2%; 85 dB SPL +/-2 dB over range 0.2 ml to 5 ml
Pressure Levels and Accuracy: +200 daPa to -400 daPa +/-10 daPa or +/-10% (whichever is larger) over range
Ear Volume Measurement Range and Accuracy: 0.2 ml to 5 ml+/-0.1 ml or +/-5% (whichever is larger) over entire range
Sweep Speed: Typically 200 daPa/sec; dependent on ear/cavity volume
Pressure Limits (Safety Cutout): +600 to -800 daPa
Reflex Measurements
Measurement Modes: Ipsilateral
Reflex Tone Levels and Accuracy: 500 Hz, 1 kHz, 2 kHz, 4 kHz (+/-2%); Configurable over range 70 dB to100 dBHL (4 kHz restricted to 95 dBHL) +/-3 dB, referenced to 2 ml calibration volume; Compensates for measured ear volume
Reflex Detection Threshold and Accuracy: 0.01 ml to 0.5 ml +/-0.01 ml configurable in 0.01 ml steps
Reflex Analysis: Reflex present/absent at each level tested; maximum amplitude of each reflex (seen on printed report & computer report); pressure at which reflex was performed
Pressure Used for Reflex Measurement: Pressure at Tympanogram peak, or 0 daPa
Reflex Tone Duration: 0.6 seconds
